China Hotel
Marriot hotel in the city centre that boasts its own direct access to the metro station. Plush rooms, great location if you can afford it.

One of Guangzhou’s most famous hotel is not necessarily its best but rooms are attractive and nicely renovated. Location is superb and revolving restaurant on the top floor is a big attraction!

Mammoth hotel with over 350 rooms, and 5 star service to match. Stunning views of the Pearl River. Well worth it, if your budget can cope.
White Swan Hotel
Expensive but its lovely location on the Pearl River and top class rooms provide the justification. All the amenities Shamian island has to offer are all in the vicinity.

Decent mid-range hotel with its biggest plus point its location on Shamian island. Dating more than a 100 years, it includes sauna, gym and a host of other facilities. Decent value.

Definitely the best of the budget accommodation offering clean 8-bed dorms or double rooms and has some lovely views over the river. Convenient location. As one of the cities cheaper offerings, you are advised to reserve your room.
